He opened his eyes to see a shaft of light.

From one, the last in line, came a thin shaft of light.

And he saw other bodies in the shaft of light.

He felt something unexpected then, like a shaft of light through everything else that day.

The shaft of light from the front window caught him now.

The shaft of light dropped and did not rise again.

A shaft of light fell on the snow outside the kitchen.

The small room was dark, but for the shaft of light from the hallway.

A very thin shaft of light came into the cell.

Suddenly far above her head she saw a little shaft of light.
